Directions
- In a Dutch oven, cook bacon over low heat until browned and crispy, about 5 minutes. Add onions and garlic and cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add bison and cook over medium heat, using a wooden spoon to break up meat as it cooks, until well browned.
Stir in beer, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chili beans, chili powder, cumin and hot sauce. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Simmer until thickened, about 1 hour. Season with salt to taste.
Meanwhile, prepare Baked Potatoes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Scrub potatoes with a brush under running water. Using a dinner fork, poke holes through the skin of the potatoes. Coat potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle with kosher salt and place potatoes on prepared baking sheet. Bake 1 hour or until there is no resistance when a potato is poked with a knife.
Slice Baked Potatoes in half. Serve chili over potato halves topped with sour cream, cheese and green onions.
